RIVER VALLEY EATS | Kat Robinson says the real sweet treats are next door at the Kopper Kettle Smokehouse

Remember the Dagwood sandwich? The one at the Kopper Kettle Smokehouse is a delightful combination of corned beef and roast beef, Swiss and American cheeses, lettuce, tomato, onion, and both mayo and spicy sweet mustard served on a round homemade roll. (Courtesy Photo/Kat Robinson)

Kopper Kettle Smokehouse, located at 6310 Alma Highway in Van Buren, often gets overlooked by out-of-towners because of its famous next door neighbor, Kopper Kettle Candies.
